All a vehicle owner needs to renew a car licence, is his or her identity document and a completed renewal form which can be downloaded from the Post Office website: www.postoffice.co.za. The form is under the domestic products button.
Post Offices are important access points for government services such as social grants. To eliminate long waiting times, the Post Office has introduced separate queues for different transactions. This also serves to eliminate crowding and ensures that Covid-19 regulations are adhered to.
The SA Post Office offers the most cost-effective delivery service for small international parcels and therefore plans to play a growing role in delivering e-commerce parcels. Its network of outlets is one of the reasons it is able to offer a unique service, and the organisation intends to maintain its extensive network.
